KS501 Viking Cross Pendant
Museum reproduction, Crusades Period 1050 - 1250 A.D.
Contrary to popular belief, Vikings who had been converted to Christianity
were participants in the Crusades, as is testified by runic graffiti found
in Orkney, left by Vikings either on their way to, or on the way back
from, the Holy Land:
Ingebjork the fair widow - many a woman
has walked stooping in here a very showy person" signed by "Erlingr"
"Thorni made love. Helgi carved" (whether
or not these were done at the same time shall remain a mystery!)
"Ingigerth is the most beautiful of all
women" (carved beside a rough drawing of a slavering dog)
"This mound was raised before Ragnarr
Lothbrocks her sons were brave smooth-hide men though they were."
35 mm, includes chain.

were found together with 10 arm and neck-rings, 3 of pure gold, the rest
of silver, some with plated with gold, two Thor's Hammers and a bead on a
chain. The whole treasure was placed between two big stones and appeared
to be someone's personal wedding outfit. Comes with
brochure detailing the age and the place of origin of the original.

across the Baltic Sea and made their way to the Black Sea, via the
Volga and Daugava rivers. In the Daugmale excavations were found hundreds

have been brought there from Scandinavia.

KS315 Broholm Bracteate
Roman Iron Age, 001-400 AD. Bracteate found
at Broholm, Fyn, part of a treasure find made in 1833. A bracteate is a
thin disc, worn as jewelry in Scandinavia in Viking and pre-Viking ages.
Although made in Scandinavia it's influenced by medallions of Roman-style,
different only in the fact that it's struck only on one side. In the rare
cases of finds with 2 sides, they are two unilateral pieces welded
together. Bracteates were mass-produced and worn as charms. Includes
chain.
Diameter: 35mm

KS342 Ribe Bracteate
Germanic Iron Age, 400-800 AD. Gold
bracteate from Darum in Ribe Country, Denmark. The original is kept at the

earliest finds were copied (by the early Germanic peoples) from Roman
medallions, and later on a unique style developed with motifs and runes
from Nordic Germanic mythology. Includes chain.
